Chapter 5: Traditional Raid Storage - Overland Storage SnapServer Administrator's Manual

Chapter 5
This chapter covers the key options of a Traditional RAID configuration. It explains how best
to use the Storage Guides and manage your RAID sets, volumes, and quotas.
IMPORTANT: To simplify the management of your SnapServer RAID sets, it is recommended that
you use the DynamicRAID option on your server and expansion units.
Using the Traditional RAID option requires you to manually configure and manage RAID sets
to meet your specific needs. For simplified storage management and additional configuration
options not available in Traditional RAID, use the DynamicRAID option instead. For
information on the DynamicRAID configuration option, see
